For me the AMG C63 is by far more desirable.

No, it doesn't. All variants have a 4 litre V8.

Whereas you can get an M3, and get Dinan performance parts from the dealer...
it isn't so much different if you buy after-market upgrades for the lIS too

i personally have the 2008 IS300 (middle east version) and really love it

looking at the more upgraded tuned up type of my car is really awesome, especially as how the IS-F looks so gorgoues and really RACE like....i really prefer it from the other german rivals....

unfortunatly i cant get one of those in our coutries dealer....only through shipping it from the USA....which would be kind of costly for me

Yeah, but in the Zonda they at least are connected to the exaust, this and the civic are oval rings connected to bumper, not even to the exausts, they just hang there away from the exaust, it's lame.

also in the Ferrari 430 Scuderia and California, and maybe even in some lambos but I need to check, what you see is not the true exhaust pipe. It's due to the tolerances, the exhaust pipe can move a lot while the car is running, so it can't be connected directly to the body as in those models. some smart tuner do so, and that' why some smart tuner works are not as good as the official ones.
